2414-1. Climate Control System
4
Interior Features
Set the mode selector dial to the position.
Set the temperature control dial to the cold position.
Set the fan control dial to the desired speed.
Turn on the air conditioner by pressing the A/C switch.
After cooling begins, adjust the fan control dial and temperature
control dial as needed to maintain maximum comfort.
■Cooling
●When maximum cooling is desired, set the temperature control dial to the
extreme cold position and set the air intake selector to the recirculated air
position, then set the fan control dial to position 4.
● If warmer air is desired at floor level, set the mode selector dial to the
position and adjust the temperature control dial to maintain maximum com-
fort.
● The air to the floor is warmer than air to the face (except when the tempera-
ture control dial is set at the extreme hot or cold position).
Cooling
NOTICE
If the air conditioner is used while driving up long hills or in heavy traffic,
monitor the engine coolant temperature warning light to see if it is illumi-
nated or flashing ( →P. 148).
The air conditioner may cause engine overheating. If the warning light is
illuminated or flashing, turn the air conditioning off ( →P. 502).

■Windshield Defrosting and Defogging
●For maximum defrosting, turn on the air conditioner, set the temperature
control dial to the extreme hot position, and the fan control dial to position 4.
● If warm air is desired at the floor, set the mode selector dial to the
position.
● In the or position, the air conditioner is automatically turned on
and the outside air position is automatically selected to defrost the wind-
shield. In the or position, the outside air position cannot be
changed to the recirculated air position.

Windshield Defrosting and Defogging
WARNING
■Do not defog the windshield using the position with the tempera-
ture control set to the cold position
Using the position with the temperature control set to the cold posi-
tion is dangerous as it will cause the outside of the windshield to fog up.
Your vision will be hampered, which could lead to a serious accident. Set
the temperature control to the hot or warm position when using the
position.

Interior Features
Operate the air conditioner in cool or cold weather to help defog the
windshield and side windows.Set the mode selector dial to the desired position.
Set the air intake selector to the outside air position.
Set the temperature control dial to the desired position.
Set the fan control dial to the desired speed.
Turn on the air conditioner by pressing the A/C switch.
■Dehumidifying
One of the functions of the air conditioner is dehumidifying the air and, to use
this function, the temperature does not have to be set to cold. Therefore, set
the temperature control dial to the desired position (hot or cold) and turn on
the air conditioner when you want to dehumidify the cabin air.

4495-3. Owner Maintenance
5
Maintenance and Care
Inspect the temporary spare tire at least monthly to make sure it is
properly inflated and stored.
The temporary spare tire is easier to handle because of its construc-
tion which is lighter and smaller than a conventional tire. This tire
should be used only for an emergency and only for a short distance.
Use the temporary spare tire only until the conventional tire is
repaired, which should be as soon as possible.
Refer to Tires on P. 570.
●The temporary spare tire condition gradually deteriorates even if it has
not been used.
●Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the
road. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced when they are
6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading
conditions can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the
spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the
spare tire. The period in which the tire was manufactured (both week
and year) is indicated by a 4-digit number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on P. 541.
WARNING
■Always use tires that are in good condition
Driving with worn tires is dangerous. Reduced braking, steering, and
traction could result in an accident.
■Replace all four tires at the same time
Replacing just one tire is dangerous. It could cause poor handling and
poor braking resulting in loss of vehicle control. Toyota strongly recom-
mends that you replace all four tires at the same time. If you replace
only two tires, the new tires should be installed on the rear of the vehi-
cle.

7-6. Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQGS)
Unifor m Tire Quality Grading System
(UTQGS)
This information relates to the tire grading system developed by the
U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for grading tires
by tread wear, traction, and temperature performance.
The tread wear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate
of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified gov-
ernment test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one-and-a-half times as
well on the government course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions
of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm
because of variations in driving habits, service practices and differ-
ences in road characteristics and climate.
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C.
These grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance.
Tread Wear
Traction-AA, A, B, C
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight
ahead) traction tests and does not include acceleration cornering (turn-
ing), hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
